Covenant With Many

My Way News - Palestinians resume bid for further UN recognition
My Way News reports: "In a surprise move that could derail U.S. peace efforts, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Tuesday resumed a campaign for further international recognition of a state of Palestine, despite a previous promise to suspend such efforts during nine months of negotiations with Israel."

Comment: This suggests that Kerry's mediation efforts have come to an end. It's a shame that the Palestinians think they have such leverage and that the U.S. allows them to think that. There are few governments in the world more fragile than the Palestinian Authority. It's almost comical to see them try to flex their muscles on the world stage.
